Will it hurt real bad to get my jaw realligned?!


Question: Will it hurt real bad to get my jaw realligned.?
And will a 25 year old woman look stupid with Braces.?

I went to my dentist again today and instead of pulling a bunch of teeth then I should just get Braces, I am already insecure enough.

I go to the Orthodontist next week. My dentist *thinks* that I will need to get jaw surgery.

I'm scared for that.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
I had braces the invisible ones.

Ask Rosie if she could see them in the photo I send her with one of my young sons. They aren't noticeable at all. I actually had the reverse once, as my upper jaw was the problem (too small)

I had 2 teeth removed to make *room* so my jaw could widen, but it was no biggy.

I did have a metal plate, placed in the upper jaw, that HURT like a ******. You were given a small *key* and every night you'd get someone to turn it. I cannot even tell you, how many times, I cried from that.

I am 2 years on, and it was all worth it. I have the most beautiful smile, I never thought I'd have.
I spend the majority of my life hiding my mouth when I spoke, now I am so proud of it.

I didn't have surgery, but when my braces and plate were fitted, I was swollen for about 10 days, I just drank midori and took panadol to ease the pain.
Then every month when they would be re--adjusted, it hurt for a few days.

Looking back though, I'd do it all over again. I am so grateful to be free of the horrible teeth I once had, and free to smile to my hearts content.

I would look into Invisi-line (sp.?) instead of braces.
Yes...jaw surgery will hurt. How long.? Depends on what they do (how extensive)...the orthodontist can give you a better idea than we can here..
Anytime you have any type of surgery, it's gonna hurt after it's done.
I've had 5 knee surgeries..and even though I kind-of new what to expect, you NEVER get used to the pain...and it can last for days or weeks..or in the case of my recent hand sugery (to replace a bone in my thumb) months...Health Question & Answer
